Needed some #2 square-drive bits; since I was hopping at Rockler anyway, why not simply put them in the basket and be done . . . I may have gotten it for less some place else but in the overall scheme of things is it really worth the time and effort?

BEST ANSWER:The #2 square drive bit fits the recess on the self drilling screw that came with the railing kit. You need the bit to remove and replace the screw. I doubt that you need to drill anything. If you havent already done it I suggest the 6" bit as it will allow for the long angle required.

We are a furniture manufacturing company of 49 employees. We use square drive screws for all of our applications in extremely large quantities purchased by the pallet. The INSERT of this drive bit is superior to all other bits we have tried. Other bits strip out after several days of heavy use. The Rockler bit lasts 4 to 5 times the life of other bits on the market.

I've found myself using my Kreg jig for many different projects, usually to make a quick jig for something else. As a result, the bit that came with my K4 system became somewhat worn out. These bits are an excellent replacement. They hold up better than the original bits and hold the screw.

i've tried these many times with the kreg screws but after driving 5-6 screws they don't hold they spin out. i did find that after drilling the kreg bit and locating the pocket hole to the base, I clamped it well and added a tiny pilot hole thru the pocket into the base. that extra step added time but I could drive 2-3 times more screws before rounding off the square.
